Michelin Power RACE - High Performance/DOT Road Racing - Front Tire
Average Customer Rating:   4.5 out of 5 (based on 3 ratings)
The Power Race relies heavily on technology developed for MotoGP racing, where Michelin dominates the world championship. The new Power Race series includes the first ever commercially available dual-compound DOT racing tires.
A new semi-slick tread pattern gives the Power Race exceptional grip, particularly at full lean, while the tread grooves are oriented to evacuate water from the contact patch in damp track conditions. New front and rear profiles actually help shift the bikes weight bias toward the front, for better feedback under braking.
Unlike some ultra high-performance tires, which are down-rated to V or W speed indices, all Power Race tires carry the (W) index for speeds in excess of 168mph. This not only simplifies tire selection, but also confirms that the Power Race meets the highest certification standards.
Features:
- Power Race Medium: intermediate compound in the center, soft compound on the shoulders.
- Power Race Medium Soft: intermediate compound in the center, extra-soft compound on the shoulders.
- Power Race Soft: soft compound overall; no dual-compound.
